Appalling!

That is exactly the term Hillary Clinton used in excoriating Donald Trump during their third debate when Trump refused to admit he would accept the results of the election. Now, only a few weeks later, Clinton is doing just that - in an even more deceitful way. Instead of challenging the results directly herself, she has her henchwoman, Jill Stein, challenging the results in three states where not only are the recounts unlikely to change in the outcome in those states, and absolutely certain to have on effect in the electoral college result, but is being done in a way that casts doubt on the electoral process by claiming mere statistics show voter fraud. Please. Those are the same statistics that predicted her victory, mind you.

The only thing the desperate, Hail Mary farce will do is further undermine the public's faith in their electoral process, exactly something that Hillary was saying Trump would do.
